I use both CCleaner and another cleaner called "Easy Cleaner". Although they
overlap in functionality,
they also do some things which the other does not. Its web address is :
http://personal.inet.fi/business/toniarts/ecleane.htm
Its description is : A small program which
searches Windows' registry for entries that are pointing nowhere. EasyCleaner
also lets you delete all
kinds of unnecessary files like temps, backups etc. You can search for
duplicate files and you can view
some interesting info about your disk space usage! You are also able to
manage startup programs,
invalid shortcuts and add/remove software list.
I run both of these programs once a week to help keep my PCs clean and
running smoothly. Hope
this helps
